I JUST PICKED UP A TL125 3PINT HITCH 48'' TURCO TILLER. IS THERE A PERT MANUAL AND WERE CAN I FIND PARTS?

hello, this is a old tiller that the manual is hard to find ,there are a few on e bay,,,

Turco is the Manufacuer (probibly a Sub Company) Plantation is the Make and 2018 is the Model Turco Products are sold by sears tho others may sell them as well

Your situation is puzzling and in fact on the Sears site with your tillers' parts list, they state the manual is no longer available with no replacement either. See item no. 92 on parts list.
Here is the parts list and diagram if there are any help to you.

Don't fear. Here is a link to a 6.5HP Craftsman tiller that I also hope will help. This model is a close relative but has rear tines.

The problem is likely in either the carburetor (needs rebuild kit) or the fuel lines (deteriorated).

Rebuild kit: available directly through Mantis or through a number of sources including ebay. This is a relatively inexpensive and can be a DIY project. Cost around $15.

Fuel lines: become cracked and allows air to get into the system. Check closely (especially within the carburetor where line attaches to the fuel filter pickup). Again, an inexpensive project in which parts can be alternatively picked up at some of the bigbox stores such as Lowes Hardware (in the trimmer section).

Hey guys found this though Google images of a tiller. It had a link to this guys site with PDF of an old Montgomery Wards tiller, which shares a lot of the same parts as a Gilson 272 42004 tiller that I have.
Here's the link:

If you have a model number for the tiller. I would go to www.precisionope.com and look under OEM parts to find a parts break down and listing.

Go to troy bilt pony horse tiller pto manual owner cd. And you can locate the manual you are looking for.

If you are looking for repair parts diagrams and part numbers they are located pages 38 through 45 of the Owner's Manual.
